Paper houses
Filled with ink pens
Abundantly
Inscribing
Copious amounts of words
On every wall

This poem was inspired by a note my Creative Writing Instructor emailed to me after I submitted my final portfolio to him for grading this semester.
He gave me a A as my final grade, plus said I had a gift for writing, was a very prolific writer, and was a great storyteller.
It was a blessing and encouragement to hear that, as he is not only an instructor, but also quite an accomplished and published writer himself.
No one has ever called me “prolific” before, except God did say: in Psalm 92:14 that “They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing,” (prolific means fruitful or abundant) and I have always believed upon that verse for myself.
So thank you God for blessing me with a prolific writing ability. I pray I can use it to bring You glory.

Wonderful gifts he gives us.
Yes. Truly.
Congratulations, Leona! That is encouraging. It’s good to use the gifts the Lord has given to us. Too many people don’t even recognize their gifts let alone use them. Or they spend all their time wishing they had someone else’s gift instead of the one they have been blessed with. It is so fulfilling to do what we are called to do and to discover what we have written has helped someone through a difficult situation or has helped them to understand something better.
Yes, very true. I love using my gifts and find the more I use them the better they get and as you say the blessing is to see how God has used them to encourage, uplift or help others. Thanks for reading and commenting Diane.
